Course 1

Traditional New England Clam Chowder with Oyster Crackers

Paired with Blanco

A taste of Maryland sunshine, this white blend opens with a fragrant honeysuckle nose, transitioning to a refreshing tartness of cantaloupe and peach, and ultimately leaving a smooth, elegant impression on the palate.

Course 2

Summer Garden Salad with Grilled Chicken Breast, Maple Glazed Pecans, Goat Cheese, and Cranberry Maple Vinaigrette

Paired with Full Bloom

A fruit-forward expression of traditional French rosé, this wine has a nose of spring florals and honey and bursts with strawberry and white cherry flavors. Its' well-balanced profile makes it a delightful choice for any season.
